- R 1 to R 3 are hydrogen, C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, 5- to 7-membered cycloalkyl, which in turn may be substituted by C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, are C 6 -C 15 -aryl or arylalkyl, where the radicals together with adjacent radicals in each case with the linking atoms may form a saturated or unsaturated ring having 5 to 15 carbon atoms, or are Si(R 4 ) 3 where
- R 4 is C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, C 3 -C 10 -cycloalkyl or C 6 -C 15 -aryl,
- M is titanium, zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium or tantalum or an element of the IIIrd subgroup of the Periodic Table or of the lanthanoids,
- x is fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, hydrogen, C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, C 6 -C 15 -aryl, alkylaryl having 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl radical and 6 to 20 carbon atoms in the aryl radical, —OR 5 or —NR 5 R 6 ,
- n 1, 2 or 3, where n is the valency of M minus the number 2,
- R 5 and R 6 are C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, C 6 -C 15 -aryl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl, fluoroalkyl or fluoroaryl having in each case 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alkyl radical and 6 to 20 carbon atoms in the aryl radical and
- radicals X are identical or different
- R 7 is C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, C 6 -C 15 -aryl, C 3 -C 10 -cycloalkyl or C 7 -C 18 -alkylaryl or is C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, C 6 -C 15 -aryl, C 3 -C 10 -cycloalkyl or C 7 -C 18 -alkylaryl, each of which is mono- or polysubstituted by Si(R 8 ) 3 , SR 8 ,
- n′ and m′ are each 1, 2, 3 or 4 and
- R 8 is hydrogen, C 1 -C 10 -alkyl, C 6 -C 15 -aryl, which may in turn be substituted by C 1 -C 4 -alkyl groups, or is C 3 -C 10 -cycloalkyl,
- radicals R 8 are identical or different
- Z is a three-way bridge
- a and A 1 are two-way bridges.
- the invention relates to processes for preparing the transition metal complexes, to compounds which are employed as intermediates for their preparation, to the use of the transition metal complexes for polymerizing olefins, to processes for polymerizing olefins, to homo- or copolymers of ethylene or of propylene with other C 2 -C 12 -alk-1-enes, to their use for preparing films, fibers or moldings, and to the films, fibers or moldings made from these polymers.
- metallocene catalysts have been used increasingly for polymerizing or copolymerizing ethylene or propylene.
- ethylene polymerization it is frequently desirable to obtain a high content of comonomers such as but-1-ene, hex-1-ene or oct-1-ene in the ethylene copolymers.
- propylene polymerization it is usually attempted to achieve an isotactic structure of the polymer chains. Using metallocene catalysts, these properties can be controlled via the ligand structure.
- the opening angle between the cyclopentadienyl rings of the metallocene has great influence on the incorporation behavior.
- a large opening angle can be achieved, for example, by bridging the rings with an SiMe 2 - or C 2 H 4 -bridge.
- Such metallocene catalysts are described, for example, in EP-A 336 128. Because of the bridging, these complexes can exist both in racemic and in meso form.
- the racemic metallocenes are particularly suitable for use in propylene polymerization, since stereoselective catalysts are required here.
- it is a disadvantage of these metallocenes that usually a mixture of racemic and meso form is obtained in the synthesis, from which the meso form has to be removed at high expense.
- a cyclopentadienyl ring is replaced by a heteroligand, for example an amide group.
- the amide group is linked covalently via a bridge (for example SiMe 2 ) with the ring system.
- a bridge for example SiMe 2
- metallocene complexes of this type are particularly suitable for incorporating comonomers in the ethylene/ ⁇ -olefin copolymerization and give a high molar mass.
- the metallocene should be capable of catalyzing the preparation of isotactic polypropylene, where it should likewise afford a high molar mass.
- the structure of the metallocene should be such that it can be prepared in a technically simple manner and that, in particular, a meso form which, for many applications, would have to be removed at great expense, can not be generated in the synthesis.
- transition metal complexes defined at the outset. Furthermore, we have found processes for their preparation, compounds which are employed as intermediates for their preparation, the use of the transition metal complexes for polymerizing olefins, processes for polymerizing olefins, homo- or copolymers of ethylene or of propylene with other C 2 -C 12 -alk-1-enes, their use for preparing films, fibers or moldings, and the films, fibers or moldings made from these polymers.
